Chapter 131: A Turnaround

After Executive Vice Governor Gao Dongyang entered the capital, a few days later, the State Administration of Work Safety sent a second investigation team, accompanied by a team of experts.

As for whether there is an inevitable connection between the arrival of the second investigation team and Gao Dongyang's trip to Beijing, this has always been a mystery!

At the meeting, Xie Maolin continued his tone, repeatedly stating that the accident was a natural disaster, and also quoted a lot of geological terms, emphasizing the complex surname of the geological structure of Wanjiashan, in order to shirk the responsibility for the construction.

The deputy director of the Work Safety Supervision Bureau kept frowning, but then he couldn't help it, so he interjected: "Governor Xie, I am afraid that it is not very objective to put all the causes of the accident on the geological conditions." ”

Xie Maolin's face immediately changed: "It is a fact that the geological conditions are poor, there is no need to push or push, everything must respect the facts." ”

The deputy director was directly refuted by Xie Maolin, his face was very unsightly, and he couldn't help but snort from his nose: "What happened to the second landslide, is it also the reason for the geological conditions?" ”

"Of course, the second landslide is also related to the geological conditions." Governor Xie Maolin seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and immediately said in a deep voice, "At that time, the scene of rescue and rescue was a little chaotic, probably because the rescue method was improper, and the soil on the bright wall of the tunnel was dug loose, causing a landslide. ”

Upon hearing this, Executive Vice Governor Gao Dongyang's face was gloomy and terrifying. You must know that the highest chief executive who commanded the rescue and rescue people at the scene was Gao Dongyang, isn't Xie Maolin questioning his command ability?

However, because Xie Maolin is the governor of the province, as a deputy, he must maintain the authority of the number one leader in front of outsiders, Gao Dongyang still didn't say anything in the end.

"The facts can only be clarified after investigation." The deputy director was also a little embarrassed, and said the most commonly used clichΓ© in officialdom.

Xie Maolin was indeed sharp, and immediately asked: "Haven't you safety supervision bureau been investigating?" ”

Then, Xie Maolin looked at the deputy director of the Safety Supervision Bureau: "Didn't you report to the leaders of the Bureau?" ”

The deputy director blushed and replied, "It's just a brief report, and the details need to be further investigated." ”

The deputy director hated Governor Xie Maolin at this time, because Xie Maolin's questioning words made him lose points in front of the leaders. You must know that although Xie Maolin is a ministerial-level high-ranking official, he cannot control the future and fate of him, the deputy director. And the deputy director of the safety supervision bureau who participated in this meeting was the leader of the deputy director!

"Then investigate, will it be an investigation or an on-site investigation? The investigation of the two investigation teams is not clear, so it is possible to invite the third and fourth investigation teams to come. Xie Maolin's words seemed very unfriendly, and there was an element of power in them.

The deputy director immediately changed his face: "The truth can always stand the test, and I am not afraid of being investigated." ”

Executive Vice Governor Gao Dongyang coughed and finally expressed his opinion: "The cause of the accident must be investigated, and whoever is responsible should bear it." Of course, as the provincial leader who rushed to the scene to direct the rescue as soon as possible, and I am also the executive vice governor, the work was not done properly, and I should be the first to take responsibility, and I reviewed it to the meeting. ”

After speaking, Gao Dongyang stood up and bowed deeply.

The audience was amazed!

Gao Dongyang's action also stimulated Xie Maolin, and his face was gloomy and terrifying.

Gao Dongyang was out of the way this time, and then said: "If we don't even have the courage to admit the facts, what kind of meeting are we sitting here, are we going to hold a celebration party here?" ”

"Comrade Gao Dongyang, what do you mean?" Xie Maolin was completely angry, and Xie Maolin emphasized many times at the provincial governor's meeting that he wanted to unify his voice, even if Gao Dongyang had an opinion, he couldn't jump out and turn against him at this time!

"Governor, I feel sad." Gao Dongyang had a sad expression on his face, "The number of deaths at the scene, we already know five at the scene, three died on the spot, and two died on the way to the hospital." Among the people rescued, no less than eight were seriously injured, and the rest were slightly injured to varying degrees. ”

"Comrade Gao Dongyang." Xie Maolin was stunned. After so many years in politics, this is the first time he has encountered such a situation. He encounters private struggles every day, but such a public shouting is really fresh, and Gao Dongyang is irritated.

But Xie Maolin immediately realized the problem in Gao Dongyang's tone, what do we already know on the scene? Can this sentence be replaced with a way of saying: What is the death toll that we don't know?

At this moment, Xie Maolin felt the crisis!

But Xie Maolin was extremely angry at the same time, Gao Dongyang not only openly challenged his authority, but simply made him ugly in public. Xie Maolin has always believed that he is polite and respectful to Gao Dongyang. And Gao Dongyang seems to have always shown him a lot of respect, obeyed everywhere, and never discorded with him, but this time, ...... Fake, everything is fake!

Realizing this, Xie Maolin immediately put on the majesty of the governor, and the majesty of the governor is not tolerated by the vice governor, even the executive vice governor!

"Comrade Gao Dongyang, your speech must be grounded, and I will draw your attention to your identity." Xie Maolin said coldly, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.

Several leaders and experts of the Work Safety Supervision Bureau looked at each other and were dumbfounded. It's the first time they've encountered this situation, and in any place before, people have already unified the caliber and set up an iron bucket array for you, which is impermeable, and it is even more difficult to check the truth than to ascend to the sky!

The problem is that Gao Dongyang didn't just pay lip service, he started to act immediately after the meeting.

When Gao Dongyang was interviewed by the news media, he first criticized the relevant departments for their weak safety awareness and ignorance of production safety, and then pointed the finger at the Provincial Expressway Construction Group and the Maha Group, criticizing them for dereliction of duty and reckless regard for human life in the construction of the expressway.

Of course, Gao Dongyang did not mention the number of casualties, but emphasized that this accident, whether it is the result of casualties, the economic losses and negative impacts, is unacceptable.

At the same time, the Provincial Political Axe Safety Production Committee urgently issued a notice to require all enterprises and production units in the province, especially road and waterway construction units, to conscientiously learn the lessons of the Wanjiashan tunnel collapse accident and quickly set off a safety inspection activity.

At the same time, Gao Dongyang demanded that safety supervision at all levels, transportation and construction departments should urgently mobilize to carry out a comprehensive safety inspection of tunnel construction, and immediately stop work for rectification if hidden accidents are discovered. Where there are potential safety hazards in tunnel construction, the work must be stopped immediately for rectification, and the safety production conditions are met one by one after the rectification, and the construction can only be resumed after review and approval.

Xie Maolin's tone was also very tough, and he insisted that the cause of the accident was a geological problem, and if there was any doubt, the central government could send another investigation team. This tone, the investigation team sent by the State Administration of Work Safety is no longer in his eyes.

In fact, Xie Maolin did not even see the deputy director of the State Administration of Work Safety now, so the investigation team directly went to Executive Vice Governor Gao Dongyang if he had any questions.

Governor Xie Maolin is playing with fire?

Gao Dongyang couldn't believe that according to Xie Maolin's political experience, he would not be so stupid, let alone make such a low-level mistake. It's not worth it, human life is at stake, Xie Maolin will not be unaware of the consequences of the adventure. Or maybe he has already communicated with the high-level, and the high-level is not willing to expand the situation and wants to calm down the turmoil as soon as possible.

is in a certain need to calm down some turmoil, which is also a normal state of officialdom, Gao Dongyang does not understand this.

The word politics is very complex, and there are many variables in it. Small things can be made big, and big things can often become small things. Trivial things can trip you, but earth-shattering things can't go away.

Sure enough, Xie Maolin made a quick move!

Xie Maolin went to the capital twice in a row. Once I reported to the State Administration of Work Safety, and by the way, I sued the deputy director of the General Administration! One time was to complain to his old leader, saying that there had been problems with his cooperation with Comrade Gao Dongyang.

At the State Administration of Work Safety, Xie Maolin said that after the investigation team arrived in Chunan Province, it broke away from the local party committee and political axe, and did not respect the opinions of the first investigation team, so they insisted on finding out the matter for Chunan Province.

"Localities may lie and be protectionist, but it would be too much to say that their own people are lying. They are all sent by the General Administration, and they are suspicious of each other and tear each other off, which will affect the image of the General Administration. Xie Maolin's words made the leaders of the General Administration really difficult, and it was regarded as talking about the pain point of the General Administration.

Immediately afterwards, Xie Maolin immediately stated that this year's safety site meeting of the General Administration will be held in Chunan Province, and the cost will be borne by the political axe of Chunan Province, which is also to promote the safety production of Chunan Province to a new level.

The State Administration of Work Safety has to hold an on-site meeting in the following provinces and cities every year, and last year it wanted to be held in Chunan Province, Xie Maolin pushed it, and this year took the initiative to put it forward, and the leaders of the General Administration were of course very happy.

The old leader is old, and his ears are a little soft, and as soon as he heard what Xie Maolin said, he immediately believed it.

As a result, Gao Dongyang received all kinds of phone calls from the capital, some of them were criticized, some were warned, and some were reminded to pay attention to work methods, and they should pay attention to unity, devote themselves to development, and make concerted efforts to carry out construction, not to engage in small actions, let alone internal friction!

Of course, these calls were all from work, and no matter whether the criticism was correct or not, they all proceeded from the overall situation of Chunan Province and for the harmony and prosperity of a province, and Gao Dongyang had to listen.

But the more I listened to Gao Dongyang, the more I felt that something was wrong, and I didn't feel good in my heart. Because some of the next phone calls were intercessions, some were complaints, and some were with some kind of threat, which meant that Gao Dongyang was a little too much in the Wanjiashan incident, making a big fuss, and didn't understand what Gao Dongyang wanted to do.

"I'd like to see how they end up in this play?" Gao Dongyang sneered in his heart, but he called Ouyang Qiang, secretary of the Yandu Municipal Party Committee: "Ouyang, let go of the Wanjiashan accident first." ”
